'Hell yeah I've drank beer, vodka and whiskey!'

CRESTVIEW - A man who was drunk and harassing customers in a convenience store parking lot has been arrested for disorderly intoxication.

On Dec. 7 an employee of a convenience store on South Ferdon Boulevard called Crestview Police and told them a drunk man was making "weird" comments to customers. She said he'd been out there the day before, doing the same thing, and she'd asked him to leave. He became angry with her and cursed her.

An officer spoke with the man, who was seated on the sidewalk in front of the store. The officer found two cans of Steele Reserve 24-ouncers next to the man. When asked, the man said he was just "hanging out." The officer wrote in the arrest report he could detect "the strong odor of an alcoholic beverage emitting from his person and breath."

When the officer asked if the man drunk any alcohol that day, the man repked, "Hell yeah I've drank beer, vodka and whiskey! I drink all day every day."

The man was arrested for disorderly intoxication and taken to the Okaloosa County jail. His court date is Jan. 15.
